In this episode of The Hard Truth, Jeremy Fouts shares one of his most personal stories the journey of coaching his son, Pearson Fouts, from age seven through signing his college baseball commitment.

Jeremy opens up about what the years of practices, long car rides, wins, losses, and quiet moments taught him as both a coach and a father. From learning to shift from “coach” to “dad,” to understanding that development is about character before talent, Jeremy reveals the truth behind raising an athlete the right way. He talks about burnout, recruiting pressure, and the mindset that truly matters the one that values growth over hype, humility over ego, and purpose over perfection.

He reveals the hard truth: The goal isn’t hype it’s growth.

But the good news? The long game always wins.

From learning patience and balance to embracing adversity and celebrating milestones, this episode is a heartfelt reminder that raising an athlete isn’t about chasing status it’s about building strength, faith, and perseverance that lasts long after the final game.
